“Senior, what are you doing?” Ji Jing Dan Di shouted in terror. At this moment, no one could remain calm; everyone was filled with fear. An unprecedented sense of death crisis enveloped everyone's hearts.
“My lord, we have already offered our treasures, why are you doing this?”
“My lord, we are willing to submit to you, please spare our lives.”
“My lord…” The crowd began to shout in panic. Among them, a few fortunate survivors like Lu Zi'an and Feng Kang'an, who were ordinary peak Martial Gods, felt their skin rapidly aging and their vital blood draining, on the verge of perishing here.
“Damn it.” Qin Chen was also filled with rage and shock; he hadn't expected that the Demon Tribe would be untrustworthy and seek to devour them.
“Everyone, is begging for mercy still useful?” Qin Chen said coldly, “If we join forces, there is still a glimmer of hope; if we wait here to die, that is certain death. What are you all waiting for? Do you want the Demon Tribe to completely devour our vital blood before resisting?” Qin Chen's booming voice echoed in the hall.
“But…” The crowd trembled at the thought of resisting the Lord of the Demon Tribe; just thinking about it made them shudder. This was a Heavenly Realm expert who could easily seal the Celestial Devil Master. Could they withstand it? Perhaps even a finger from the opponent could easily crush them.
“You are truly…” Qin Chen was furious; this group of people was simply hopeless.
“If you do not resist, then this Young Master will resist!” “Old Source, assist me.” Qin Chen roared inwardly.
Boom! As his voice fell, a terrifying source power surged into Qin Chen's body. Old Source realized the danger and fought with all his might.
Boom! Within Qin Chen's body, the Thunder Bloodline erupted, instantly nullifying that devouring power. Countless bolts of lightning surged around him, and the spatial thunder domain erupted in an instant. A terrifying aura rose from his body.
“What?” Qin Chen was astonished; with Old Source's assistance, he had truly broken free from the devouring of the Lord of the Demon Tribe, and even the spatial restraints had been removed. Was the Lord of the Demon Tribe so weak? No! It couldn't be said that the Lord of the Demon Tribe was weak; the power Qin Chen unleashed had already reached the semi-Saint level, almost on par with Shangguan Xi'er.
This was Old Source exerting full force, continuously supplying him with combat strength. However, this still exceeded Qin Chen's expectations. With the Lord of the Demon Tribe's strength, wasn't it impossible to even contend with the Saint Realm?
“I understand.”
“Qin Chen, this guy is not as strong as imagined.” Old Source's angry voice resounded, “It is merely a projection.
The reason it allowed the Celestial Devil Master and the others to leave before was not because they offered their treasures, but because this being could not deal with so many semi-Saint level experts and had no choice but to let them go.”
Old Source's voice rumbled in Qin Chen's mind. In fact, without Old Source pointing it out, Qin Chen had already realized it, for he found that the devouring power of this shadow was not much stronger than that of the Celestial Devil Master. Even if it was strong, it was limited. If the Lord of the Demon Tribe had only this level of power, it would be a joke.
“No wonder…” Qin Chen suddenly realized; at this moment, he also understood what Old Source meant when he said something was off.
With the Lord of the Demon Tribe's strength, suppressing the Ancestral Devil Blood Technique should be a piece of cake. However, when the Demon Spirit presented the Ancestral Devil Blood Technique earlier, the Lord of the Demon Tribe took several breaths to suppress it, which did not match its strength at all.
If the Lord of the Demon Tribe was truly as terrifying as it appeared, it should have been able to accomplish it in the blink of an eye. Yet, at that time, everyone was intimidated by the Lord of the Demon Tribe's terror and the attitude of the devouring demon lord, and no one noticed the discrepancies.
